She has just shown how much Labour detest the aspirational working class, the swingiest of swing voters. Labour will be hit with this again and again and again; ever denial and denunciation will just bring Labour's true views to a wider audience. Fundamentally, it will only reinforce the undeniable fact that Miliband's centre of gravity is firmly ensconced in Islington.

She has made a Tory/UKIP coalition, perhaps the best possible electoral outcome, much more likely. Thank you Emily!

What has Boris said?

Viviennemary · 25/11/2014 18:10

He ranted at a taxi driver because the driver wasn't going the route Boris would have taken. With a sort of I'm much cleverer than you and do you know who I am you ignorant silly little man. (not quite in those words but more or less!)

I worked in a hospital department today where only 50% of the patients spoke English. The NHS had to pay interpreters £50 an hour so we could treat them. I will be voting UKIP in the next election and then I might get my 1% pay rise Confused

Boris? Oh do keep up!! On GN they are castigating the taxi driver for taking the story to the Sun < deep sigh>

David Mellor should resign immediately from his government position.
oh hang on he hasn't been a MP for 17 years he is just an arse

Viviennemary, it was David Mellor wasn't it? Or has Boris done a similar thing too?

ArcheryAnnie · 25/11/2014 19:07

"You've been driving a cab for 10 years? I have been in the cabinet, I am an award-winning broadcaster, I'm a Queen's Counsel, you think your experiences are anything compared to mine? Just shut up.

"Drive me whichever way you want, and keep a civil tongue in your head."

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Mellor was always a nob.

Remember the Chelsea shirt?

ginghamcricketbox · 25/11/2014 19:13

Noooooooooooooooo chelsea shirt (shudders)

Viviennemary · 25/11/2014 19:18

Oh dear. I've made a mistake. It wasn't Boris. It was David Mellor. Sorry about that. Blush

Sixweekstowait · 25/11/2014 22:32

Gosh I bet DC wishes it had been Boris!

Mellor's always been a pompous prick with a vastly inflated opinion of his own abilities - an opinion not shared by anyone else.

So glad this cabbie taped him, he's been caught bang to rights.
